It's been an amazing challenge! Kudos to all of the creative, wonderful artists and writers who bravely put forth their creations and let their imaginations be tested in the boiling waters of fandom. From the steamy throes of competition have arisen our champions for this round. But let it not be said that these works won single-handedly without dispute. For there were many grand and amazing entries submitted. In the end, it's the members who benefit from the thrilling and beautiful creations by our competitors.

Into this alternate history world of steampunk, where the dominant technology is steam and mechanical-powered devices, we challenge our members: recreate a BioWare game in a steampunk setting!

What is Steampunk?

Steampunk is a stylistic aesthetic, a fictional universe, an alternate history, and a subcategory of science fiction. It’s really a lot of things, and a basic version boils down to this: if the world had developed along the lines of steam technology and mechanical devices instead of electricity, what would an advanced steam technology universe look like? Most steampunk creations take for inspiration the Victorian period of British history, which coincides with the first major modern day industrialization period. References for steampunk works can be found through searches all across the web as well as on deviantArt itself.

Art

For Art, we will be looking for redesigned versions of the characters, vehicles, animals, monsters, or settings to fit inside a steampunk environment.

Fiction

For Fiction, we want to see how you retell the relationship of the characters if they were transported to a steampunk world. Whether they are native to a steampunk universe or unfortunate victims of a pan-dimensional cock-up is entirely up to you.

What is a Club Challenge?

Challenges are basically writing or drawing “prompts.” The idea is to create something directly in response to the challenge idea, and then submit it to a competition based on this theme. Artwork and fiction created and submitted before the challenge date are not eligible to compete. Entries must all be submitted into the DeviantArt BiowareFanClub in order to be eligible to win. You do not have to be a club member to submit.

Judging and Prizes aka “How do I win” / "What do I get"?

Entries will be judged via a poll vote after final submissions are turned in. We generally have a category for art, and if there are enough submissions, then fiction as well.
